COIL LOADED DIPOLE

[Happy_Hamer]

Well I wanted to create a coiled dipole like Moleculo did in an earlier thread. So with a little ingenuity my friend and I created a winder and used some magnet wire from Radio Shack. The coils below are the end result.

I am hoping to cover 10-15-20-40-80 meter.

I used 1 1/4" Electrical Conduit and about 70 wraps.

more pictures to come.

That is pretty work, so can you direct me to the plans for the lengths of the wire sections?

Yup, testing the lengths then will post pictures and info.

Can we see your winding jig?

He's just trying to make my home-brew hand wound version look bad.

And it's working

If that 'green' one was 'blue', I'd say they were built 'port/starboard'.

(What'a you mean -tried- to make yours look bad, 'Mole?)
